Drawing from plaster casts of antique sculpture was a key part of architectural training. These two sheets show how that training built an eye for volume, light and form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eOne study shows a heavy-set Roman head with tightly curled hair. The other shows a lean, deeply lined face on a bust with shoulders. Both are rendered in soft, tonal shading on warm-toned paper and signed lower right. They hang well as a pair, with a quiet presence suited to a study, hallway or library wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBoth are presented in their original narrow gilt frames with a black inner band, made by the Copenhagen glazier Axel Hansen \u0026amp; Søn, whose stamp remains on the backing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist: Henning Jerver, Danish architect\u003cbr\u003eFramer: Axel Hansen \u0026amp; Søn, Glarmester, Frederikssundsvej, Copenhagen\u003cbr\u003ePeriod: c. 1940s–1950s\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Denmark\u003cbr\u003eQuantity: Set of 2\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Original frames with wear and small losses to the gilding, in keeping with age\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44 × 30 cm (17.3 × 11.8 in) each, framed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56411292041558,"sku":"BHO-0018","price":287.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1062\/7445\/5894\/files\/Emperordrawings-2.jpg?v=1793371728","url":"https:\/\/bluehourobjects.com\/products\/pair-of-danish-academic-drawings-of-classical-busts-henning-jerver","provider":"Blue Hour Objects","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
